PATLABOR become Real Life Movie

Have you read Patlabor by Yuki Masami? This was one of my favorite manga when I was in high school in 90s. I stil have full episodes somewhere in the warehouse.

Patlabor is a story based on robots and the people like many robots ( yes, of course, there are fights between robots.).

A big difference from other robot stories is that Patlabor has a realistic story line based on the real world. I mean the world in this manga is a normal world not like the space war world. There
are some companies like Shinohara Heavy Industry (good side), Schaft(bad side)/businesses/politics involved.

In this manga you can feel as if these robots can really exit in this world.

Yesterday an exciting news came out. Patlabor will become a real life/live action movie. The movie will be released in 2014. The details are not yet known.

As this manga was one of the mangas ( other ones include Grappler Baki) I wanted to see as the real life version. This will be great!
